The Cult of Cats - Massive Cinematic Failure

Ойын-сауық

I was featured in a video with Taylor Swift though, so that's cool.
Cat School, Nuzzling, and 100s of millions lost, does Cats have what it takes to reach Cult status?

    You know what the best things about this whole "Cats" fiasco was? It was completely apolitical. No one screamed racism sexism, blah blah, and everyone, from right wing to left wing and everything in between, everyone, regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, or national origin, all stood shoulder to shoulder and said, in one united voice: *WHAT THE FUCK DID I JUST WATCH?!*

    Cats is absolutely amazing live and I've seen it 4 or 5 times in different countries. The plot takes a while to get into but it's pretty obvious if you just listen to the lyrics :) The problem (haha, one of many!) of the movie is that it tried to crowbar way too much plot into what is ultimately just a spectacle (the worst part of the play, which is only even present half the time in staging it, is all the Gus theatrical stuff with the Pollicles and whatnot, and the weird subplot where Macavity kidnaps Deuteronomy).

    I think it is relevant to point out, when someone complains about a plot, to try to clarify that the plot that the movie "reimagined" was already confusing. The film made A LOT of other mistakes but what bothers me (as a huge fan of the musical) is that they tried to make the plot, I suppose, more comprehensible while making an absolute shite of it. And then add the rest...

    I think the Art KZreadr LavenderTowne had a really good idea of how to translate the cats to the big screen. Her idea was for the whole movie to be more of a masquerade ball, where instead of actual cats they are just humans in masquerade masks that look like cats. She drew Victoria and she was just a normal ballerina with a masquerade cat mask. I feel like this would have been much better as a big movie than what we actually got, at least visually, and as a CATS musical fan, I would have preferred it this way...

    The bit about editing being done up until the morning of the premiere reminds me of my freshman musical. My high school theater director had had the job for 50 years and it was going to be his last season so he wanted to go out with a bang. He picked Camelot. We were not equipped to do a show on the scale of Camelot. Opening night was our first full run. It was terrible and I'm glad my first introduction to musical theater was such a disaster because it made me feel really good about the rest of my high school drama career. Cats doesnt want to remind me of Camelot but it does.

    The visual effects themselves (despite being unfinished) were actually quite well done by the VFX artists in the time they had available. They aren't perfect and are probably still unfinished. It's the art direction itself that put most people off. If you enjoyed the film, that's great. Most people disliked the film with a passion that would stun a bantha at fifty yards.

    Unironically loved Cats. And listen, I can see why people might be put off by the graphics (I just pretended they were wearing costumes and makeup and it was fine) or some of the more questionable directing decisions ("cat school") but if you're gonna tell me you didn't like _any_ of the songs other than Beautiful Ghosts then I'm not sure you're even being honest with yourself. Really hoping the sing-along "Jellicle ball" idea takes off, even if most of the audience is there to enjoy it ironically.

    So apparently Tom Hooper took the same approach to making this movie as I did to writing papers for my English class last year- franticly finishing it at 8am the day it’s due and turning in a barely finished and unpolished mess. The difference being that I was a college student taking a class that‘s not even part of my major and he was an academy award winning director making a movie with a budget of nearly 100 million dollars.

    Ian McKellen, the couple you mentioned, my 90 yr old great-aunt: my theory is that the generation above boomers doesn't clock the uncanny valley the way we do. Do I think they thought claymation king Kong was realistic or were they willingly suspending dissbelief? No clue. But the way my great aunt reacted to the cats trailer- saying it looked amazing and so many colors and how creative- I'm pretty sure there's generational bias on display when it comes to cats.
